The app, made available to retailers and shopkeepers, has a lite version which will enable them to process payments even in slow network conditions. Customers can pay using all forms of payments from 16 sources including debit cards, credit cards, mobile wallets, UPI and bitcoins.

Siddharth Arora, co-founder, ePaisa said, “The recent government push on digital payments has started showing results. We are seeing 20x transactions by our merchants. But internet connectivity is still a challenge. Given the plethora of payment options now available we are launching Payments by ePaisa- to enable small businesses to easily accept any form of payment, even if their internet connection is slow.”

While ePaisa is a full fledged mobile POS system that covers billing, payments, VAS and inventory management, the new launch is a pure payments app. The app has been launched on both the android and iOS platform, said the company.Once a merchant downloads the app, ePaise would complete the KYC process, following which he can use it to accept payments.

“Demonetisation has given a great push to digital payments. Empowering the sellers is at the core of what we do. While ePaisa provides merchants with an eco-system to grow your business, Payments by ePaisa enables merchants to accept all types of payments,” said Arora. Earlier in November 2016, MasterWallets - powered by ePaisa, integrated Unified Payments Interface on its platform. MasterWallets enabled merchants will now be able to accept payments via the UPI. Set up in 2012, ePaisa is focused on digitizing the point of sale for businesses.
